I see in the 2019-20 Pa Hunting/Trapping regulation book that a shipping tag is required to ship furs out of state. I spoke with a game warden and he had no clue about a fur shipping tag. I sent a letter to the PA south western office and asked the same question and they sent an application to become a fur dealer. Does anybody know if it is a requirement to have a "fur shipping tag" to ship furs out of PA?

Never heard of such a thing, unless we are talking bobcats, then you need a cites tag.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

The tags that the NAFA reps used to put on each fur qualify. I don't know what FHA does.

plain and simple buyers are ticked that groeny don't have a pa lisc. and is buying pa fur-albeit outside pa.,makin the trapper the criminal not them.the game co. is getting their ear bent about it and i imagine won't be looking the other way as much.

disclaimer--not a furbuyer nor never was but have worked for many.

hate to see pa guys that don't know get in trouble.

I got them when I'd ship to Groeny. I'd call the Huntington office and they'd send them. No problem

Thanks everyone. In case anybody cares it's at the top of page 45 in the PA 2019/20 Hunting & Trapping digest.

Pa law requires a shipping tag on all Fur being shipped out of Pa. Contact the Harrisburg office for tags or a local furbuyer. Shipping Fur out of pa without a shipping tag on the outside of the box is a violation of the federal lacy act. The tag is a two part tag with one half going to pa game commission in Harrisburg the other on the outside of the shipment. This has been a royal pain for fubuyers for the past 30 years. Please do not take this law lightly. John

Does this apply for hides being sent out to be tanned and returned to the owner, or is it just if the hide is being sold to a buyer outside of Pa?

I emailed my above question to my PGC regional office. Answer,,,,,yes hides sent to a tannery outside of Pa must have the shipping tag.
